    About this ebook

    How do you conquer other countries for fun and profit? What are the rules for brown people hoping to be successful in the West? By following “The Fourteen Commandments of Indian and Nonwhite (Male) Success,” delivered by a White God, a patronizing god who lets you choose any seven out of fourteen commandments (in consideration of your natural weaknesses).

    A second chapter provides clear rules, dos, and don'ts, on How to Win the Booker Prize.

    Nonwhites: Please Don't Leave Asia or Africa without The Pocket Coconut Bible! This book, in the high satirical tradition, provides the Essential Guide to Success in the Western World.

    Richard Crasta is an Indian-born writer whose writing and micro-publishing enterprise operates out of New York, even though he is, presently, in Asia. He is the author of The Revised Kama Sutra: A Novel, which has been published in ten countries.

    This book is around 10,000 words and may be unpublished at any time.

    Richard Crasta

    Richard Crasta is the India-born, long-time New York-resident author of "The Revised Kama Sutra: A Novel" and 12 other books, with at least 12 more conceived or in progress. "The Revised Kama Sutra," a novel about a young man growing up and making sense of the world and of sex, was described by Kurt Vonnegut as "very funny," and has been published in ten countries and in seven languages.Richard's books include fiction, nonfiction, essays, autobiography, humor, and satire with a political edge: anti-censorship, non-pc, pro-laughter, pro-food, pro-beer, and against fanaticism of any kind. His books have been described as "going where no Indian writer has gone before," and attempt to present an unedited, uncensored voice (James Joyce, Vladimir Nabokov, and Philip Roth are among the novelists who have inspired him.).Richard was born and grew up in India, joined the Indian Administrative Service, then moved to America to become a writer, and has traveled widely. Though technically still a New York resident, he spends most of his time in Asia working on his books in progress and part-time as a freelance book editor.
